Amwell Lodge Quiz Night Raises £1,000 for The UK Sepsis Trust

Members and guests of Amwell Lodge recently gathered for a lively quiz night that combined fun, fellowship, and generosity, raising an impressive £1,000 in support of an inspiring cause.

The evening, organised by Wes Pierce, aimed to support Sam Carey, who will be running the 2026 London Marathon in aid of The UK Sepsis Trust. Sam is taking on the challenge in memory of her sister, Lianne, who tragically passed away in October 2024 following a sudden battle with sepsis.

Lianne was remembered as a true force of nature, kind, passionate, and full of life. A talented wheelchair athlete in her youth, she competed in the London Youth Games, National Track Championships, and even completed a charity lap of Silverstone. At just 11 years old, she became the youngest ever participant in the Junior London Mini-Marathon.

Upon receiving the donation, Sam expressed her gratitude:

“Thank you so much, I can’t tell you how much this means to us. Running the London Marathon is my way of honouring Lianne’s incredible spirit and helping raise awareness of sepsis. Every mile I run will be for her.”

Wes Pierce and Robin Crozier presented the cheque to Sam, congratulating her on her dedication to such a meaningful cause.

Amwell Lodge’s efforts embody the very best of Masonic charity and community spirit, supporting others, remembering loved ones, and helping to save lives.
